Calculate Average Grain Size



Formula

To calculate the Average Grain Size:

\[ V_g = \frac{V_t}{N_g} \]

What is Average Grain Size?

The average grain size is a measure used in materials science to describe the size of grains in a polycrystalline material. It is an important parameter that can influence the mechanical properties, such as strength and hardness, of the material. The average grain size is typically determined by dividing the total volume of the material by the number of grains present.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ V_g = \frac{500}{50} = 10 \text{ cubic units per grain} \]

The average grain size is 10 cubic units per grain.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ V_g = \frac{750}{150} = 5 \text{ cubic units per grain} \]

The average grain size is 5 cubic units per grain.
